(2022) to appositely model the beta-valued cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) sites, to objectively identify methylation state thresholds and to identify the differentially methylated CpG (DMC) sites using a model-based clustering approach. The family of beta mixture models employs different parameter constraints applicable to different study settings. The EM algorithm is used for parameter estimation, with a novel approximation during the M-step providing tractability and ensuring computational feasibility. authors: - family-names: Majumdar given-names: Koyel email: koyel.majumdar@ucdconnect.ie orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4692-9002 - family-names: Silva given-names: Romina email: romina.silva@ucdconnect.ie - family-names: Perry given-names: Antoinette Sabrina email: antoinette.perry@ucd.ie - family-names: Watson given-names: Ronald William email: william.watson@ucd.ie - family-names: Rau given-names: Andrea email: andrea.rau@inrae.fr orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6469-488X - family-names: Jaffrezic given-names: Florence email: florence.jaffrezic@inrae.fr - family-names: Murphy given-names: Thomas Brendan email: brendan.murphy@ucd.ie orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5668-7046 - family-names: Gormley given-names: Isobel Claire email: claire.gormley@ucd.ie orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7713-681X repository: https://koyelucd.r-universe.dev commit: 79cbbc0fab9dcd6d0c77e200502cc08796546252 contact: - family-names: Majumdar given-names: Koyel email: koyel.majumdar@ucdconnect.ie orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4692-9002
